The Maze Runner





 Hello! I was very excited for do this entry.

The Maze Runner is one of my favourite books, is written by James Dashner,  I like so much.







When Thomas wakes up in the lift, the only thing he can remember is his name. He’s surrounded by strangers, boys whose memories are also gone.


"Nice to meet ya, shank. Welcome to the Glade"


Outside the towering stone walls that surround the Glade is a limitless, ever-changing maze. It’s the only way out and no one’s ever made it through alive.


        "Everything is going to change"


               Then a girl arrives. The first girl ever. And the message she delivers is terrifying.

            Remember. Survive. Run

A film you have seen in English: BAD NEIGHBOURS



Kelly and Mac are settling down in a quiet neighborhood with their newborn child, until the frat brothers move into the house next door.

Teddy is the President, and Pete is his right hand man, and they're quick to accept friendship when Kelly and Mac introduce themselves as the neighbors. Night after night, Mac asks Teddy to lower the fraternity's noise, even accepting the invitation to the party one evening. When Teddy goes back on his word to keep the partying down, Mac calls the police to deal with the problem. 

The police quickly blame Mac for their presence, and the war begins. As the family feuds with the frat brothers, things get hilariously dangerous and the fraternity end ups on thin ice with their college. After receiving their final warning and being placed on probation, Mac and Kelly pull a prank so ingenious that Teddy and Mac are forced to respond.

She follows it down a rabbit hole when suddenly she falls a long way to a curious hall with many locked doors of all sizes. She then discovers a bottle on a table labelled "DRINK ME" the contents of which cause her to shrink too small to reach the key which she has left on the table. 
She eats a cake with "EAT ME" written on it in currants as the chapter closes.











The Queen of Hearts
She made some tarts,
All on a summer's day;
The Knave of Hearts
He stole those tarts,
And took them clean away.
The King of Hearts
Called for the tarts,
And beat the knave full sore;
The Knave of Hearts
Brought back the tarts
And vowed he'd steal no more.
